Happenings at A Place in Time on August 6th, 2012

Good Evening Everyone,

Yesterday's Craft Snack and Tidbit session involved making a fun gift tag that could be used for any occasion. Priscilla wanted to use a tool we just received in the store - The Scor-Bug from Scor-pal. If you want dotted embossed lines this is the tool for you. Use it with the Scor-pal if you want scored straight or parallel lines. Use it free hand to let loose your inner creativity.

Maude made this gift tag using our "Thank you" stamp, the Turtle Border die from Memory Box,
the Scor-Bug, and some beautiful ribbon. Great job Maude...

Priscilla will be taking the next couple of Sundays off for a little R & R. So, the next Craft Snack and Tidbit session will be on Sunday, August 26th. The store will be open while Priscilla is gone. Darrell West and I will be running things in the mean time. Darrell has a lot of talent when it comes to crafting and has a huge amount  experience in managing a store. He will be giving me a break for a couple of days. I hope you all will come by the store and say hi and make him feel welcome.

Shipments that recently arrived in the store include Scor-pal, paper from Bazzil, dies from Tim Holtz, Border Punches from EK Success, and Border Dies + Embossing Folders from Sizzix. 

Did I tell you that we received the perfect gift for your friends on the mainland? They are your choice of insulated Lunch Bags or an expandable Tote Bag. They have a definite island flavor and you may not be able to resist spoiling yourself with one. For $5.00 you can't miss.

Fran's classes in August are sold out. We are currently taking reservations for her "A Year in Cards" scheduled for Wednesday, September 22nd. The time is 6:30 - 8:30 pm and the cost will be $20.00. Give me a call if you would like to be included. You won't be disappointed.

Before I sign off, I wanted to show you a couple of birthday cards that Priscilla recently made. They are sooooo cute and reflect the interests of the grandchildren that will receive them. Can you imagine receiving a cupcake with candles from the Hulk. Ha! With Art's assistance in Photo Shop, the Hulk was modified to receive the cupcake. Priscilla has that creative spark that sees the possibilities and makes it simple. Anybody can make these cards.

You just have to smile when you look at this card
Lastly, Priscilla is putting together another Memory Box order for their beautiful dies. Many of you have requested we order specific dies. They will be included in this order, plus there are many that will be new to the store. As before, we are putting together a list that you can pre-order from. The holidays are just around the corner and and several of the dies will reflect the "season". I'll let you know when the list is ready.

That's all for now..... I'll see you tomorrow....
